Eden Valley Hospice and Jigsaw rely on the help and support provided by you, the local community we serve, to offer the highest quality care to those with life-limiting conditions. The local NHS trust provides around 25% of our running costs, while the remaining 75% comes from the generosity and efforts of our supporters in the local area and beyond through fundraising.

Home money boxes
Our Home Money Boxes are a great, easy way to raise money for the hospice. Once full you can bring it in to the hospice and drop it off with us, take it to one of our charity shops or to your local branch of the Cumberland Building Society.
If you’d like a Home Money Box, please let us know by emailing fundraising@edenvalleyhospice.org or give us a ring on 01228 817657.
Gift Aid
Gift Aid is a Government scheme which allows charities to claim the basic rate tax on every pound donated. This means that if you were to make a donation of £100 to the Hospice, you’ll actually be giving us £125 at no extra cost to you!

Your local hospice
We’re a charity dedicated to providing specialist care for adults in north Cumbria who have life limiting conditions. In addition, we also provide care for their families, friends and carers.
I can’t fault the care we had. They looked after us so well, day and night they were there for us when we needed it most.
